These are 4 Christmas tales following A FRONTIER CHRISTMAS (2004). Three of the authors returned while Elizabeth Chadwick is new. My favorites were by Elizabeth Chadwick and Norah Hess. Chadwick did a masterful job of showing the incredible tension Merritt was in when she becomes interested in Jonathan.
LOVING DEVLIN (by Madeline Baker) This is a continuation of the story LOVING SARAH in A FRONTIER CHRISTMAS (2004). LOVING SARAH was a page-turner; this one wasn't quite as interesting. It is 4 years after the first story and Sarah has lost two baby boys; she's pregnant again and worried. Marauding Cherokee Indians snatch 71/2 month pregnant Sarah.
There was an interesting interplay between Devlin and his estranged Apache brother, Noche. It was a very satisfying turn.
THE FOURTH GIFT (Elizabeth Chadwick) Isolated and insulated on a sheep ranch in Arizona, 29 year-old Merritt Fox has been doing a man's work since she was very young. Her only companions were lonely old men (Merritt's mother died when she was young). Merritt never thought about being female or wearing dresses, etc.
Without telling Merritt, her uncle sells his ½ of the ranch to a book writer, Jonathan Forrester, and scurries off to the fleshpots of San Francisco. Merritt is shocked when she finds that Forrester means to take up residence in her ranch house. This is a story about a young woman, clueless about being feminine, trying to accept the softer side of herself and learning to respond to a man interested in her. It is a very bumpy -- but enjoyable ride.
CHRISTMAS SURPRISE (Norah Hess). Jassy Jeffers is alone on the farm she inherited from her parents two years when men arrive and threaten her. A man (Luke Slater) steps out of the woods and asks if they are bothering his wife. The men leave quickly. Jassy has never seen the man before.
Slater asks her for a meal and says he?ll do a few odd jobs to repay her kindness. Five months later, Luke is still on the Jeffers farm and the neighbors are starting to talk.
CHRISTMAS STAR (Connie Mason) This story is so hokey I hate to waste the space to summarize the story. Some folks like prophecy and ?the magic of Christmas? but I do not; the story was just too outlandish for me.
